This movie is a masterpiece on several levels. The acting was excellent, cinematography compelling, script very good and the score fantastic. Otto is a multi-faceted gem and each bit shines. The black&white silent film era girlfriend is so delicious you could eat her. (That's such an original and well executed idea.) There is a lot of gayness, but that adds to the overall effect rather than detracting from it. Dr K (spouse) loved this movie even with the full-on intestinal sex bits. The flash-backs to Otto's previous life are so bright and happy it really accents Otto's current "un-life". The female director was slightly overdone but still hilarious. This has made our year movie-wise, and we'll be looking for more Bruce Labruce...
